Hi again! A couple of updates for you regarding the HMS band program.
The dates for the parades this year are as follows:
- The Sebastopol Apple Blossom Parade will be on Saturday, April 20th. The students are usually required to spend from 9-11:30 preparing and performing.
- The Santa Rosa Rose Parade will be on Saturday, May 18th. The students will be bussed from Hillcrest to downtown Santa Rosa in the morning, returning home around lunchtime.
More specific details will be posted and sent home when the events come closer. As always, if a student is unavailable to make either parade, I must be given a written or emailed note from a parent/guardian explaining why in order for the absence to be excused.
Congratulations to our drum majors - Kimberly Juarez-Rico and Josie Hoover. They were selected through an audition process including 7 other students.
Flag team information meeting will be for 8th graders Friday, Jan. 25th at 8am in the band room. Auditions will be held the following Friday, Feb. 1st at the same time and place. Both meetings have mandatory attendance if a student wants to be on the flag team.
PARENTS AND FAMILIES - If you have any pictures of past events, pleas email them to me or give me hard copies as I would like to create a pictures section here on the website.
Thanks for reading, and I'll see you soon!
Mr. Pulley
